So what about you ? You get your SE HSDPA phone in approx 1 month or so. What is the problem with that (the few that really need it today, probably already have their Nokias, Samsungs or whatever) ?
1 month is fine, maybe 3 months for us in SA. Why not sooner is what Im asking, to lead you need to be first.... Its sort of standard now as most high end phones will have HSDPA.

We had 3G for a year before se brought out the V800 our first se 3G phone.
I know there was a gap between the introduction of 3G networks and handsets supporting it for a period (at leats the number of phones was really lousy from all manufacturers and the operators complained) as it has been for HSDPA.
I agree the phones were rather bad, but so was all the the manufacturers, yet they still were the first to launch them.
HSDPA introduced phones are very good, nothing like the 3G intro.

We have HSDPA from Nov 2005 here in SA but still no se available that supports HSDPA.
I believe the first 3.6 Mbps network was demonstrated in Feb 2006 at the 3GSM trade fair (at least for Europe). Approxemately same time Samsung showed what was claimed to be the first 3.6 Mbps handet in the world.
Not sure what HSDPA version that may have existed prior that.
HSDPA is 1.8MBs thats was stage one, thats what we have for 2 years now.

HSDPA 1.8mbs is now also old news and only now has se launched a HSDPA phone luckily one that uses 3.6mbs.
Ericson mobile platform product upon which SE phones are based on supports 3.6 Mbps and higher HSDPA. Nothing below that speed.
Well ofcourse now, technology has moved on, SE never released a HSDPA phone at 1.8Mbs
Its like if BMW didnt release the new M3 with a 4litre, 4 litres the new standard.
They cant release it with old technology can they???

What about 7.2mbs HSDPA?
What about it. How many networks or handsets supports 7.2 Mbps ?
I would get the K850 around Dec/Jan.... In one year I estimate our networks will be upgraded to 7.2Mbs

Se still lacks a wifi enabled handsets,
Not sure what you mean. They have smartphones with WIFI. Are you looking for SE dumb phones with WIFI ?
It would benefit alot of users alot especially for handsets like the K800/K850, the N80 and N95 has it. Its usefull especially for bussiness.

but then maybe we should suffer coz the rest of the world is slow?
Well, if there are few users, then there is no money to make. First comes the networks, then PC cards and last handsets. I mean, even today, its not like there is a homungus amount of HSDPA phones available (the number has just started to increase during this year).
True. So se waited for Nokio to make the first move?? Hardly a leader in technology.
